The Big Idea
Choose a bug and drop it into the net to hear 100 amazing bug facts and quiz questions! Then, listen as the talking bug net asks you creepy, crawly questions using the facts you’ve learned.
Shhh...They're Learning!

I thought it was the greatest thing but it lasted only 10 minutes, then just began to buzz. I tried new batteries but same thing. I would love this game for my grandchildren but it was not satisfactory.I am looking online for more products from this company but am worried the same thing will happen.

Was this a gift?:

No

Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

The GeoSafari Jr. Talking Bug Net is perfect for any curious child who is interested in bugs. There are two ways to play, first you can drop bugs in to hear one of the 100 bug facts about them or you can get quizzed. My 3 year old loves to drop the bugs in and hear the facts, many of which he is actually retaining and repeating later on. It is so nice to see him interested and fascinated with something other than cars, even if its bugs. The facts are all different and simple enough for kids to understand. Also the net is super easy to use as once you install the 3 AAA batteries (not included) you just turn it on and drop the bugs in. There are the two different functions on the side as well as two volume levels. I think the only thing that would make this better is maybe more bug facts, although we have yet to hear them all and maybe a way for the net to hold all the bugs for storage purposes. Overall though the bug net has kept my 3 and 5 year old busy and they love hearing all the random bug facts. They also think its like magic how the net knows which bug is in the net.
